UW Book Review – The Power Of A Praying Wife

2011-05-16

At the beginning of April I picked up The Power Of A Praying Wife by Stormie Omartian. It has 30 short chapters – a perfect challenge to read one a day for a month – each one a different topic encouraging wives to pray for their husbands. The title alone empowers wives, prompting them to take action in protecting their family! The writing style is very comprehensible, making it a very easy read. Stormie took 30 topics that are faced in marriage and provides a guided prayer for each one. She also includes “Power Tools” – awesome verses – that reinforce why we need to keep God in the center of our marriage, why prayer is an important part of that, why praying for husbands

Love & Steadfastness

2011-05-15

May the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God and to the steadfastness of Christ.” – 2 Thessalonians 3:5 This verse is a cornerstone for a healthy marriage. We need to abide in God daily. Seeking and pursuing a personal relationship with God gives us understanding to the depths of love and reveals the capacity we have to love ourselves and others. We need to be steadfast – fixed or unchanging; steady; firmly loyal or constant; unswerving – we need to be steadfast in our relationship with our Savior! Allow God to direct your heart, allow transformation, allow refining, allow His LOVE to fill your heart… in this you will find the overwhelming capacity and desire to LOVE your husband.

A Different Kind Of Aisle

As we continue through this week I have been meditating on what Christ went through for us. Good Friday and Easter are the remembrance and celebration of Christ’s journey to the cross, his death and resurrection. It is THE most important event in history, relevant even for us today, yet the remembrance of this Holiday gets overshadowed by the Easter Bunny, colored eggs and peeps!?! Without Christ sacrificing himself there would be no redemption by grace to cover our sins, separating us from God. What a horrible place this would be. I understand that the world would consider this only a celebration for Christians, but I know that there are Christians that don’t even hold value in this week, or not enough value anyways. Jesus

Bring To The Light That Which Is In Darkness – Ephesians 5:11-14

2011-04-14

Genesis 3:8 “They heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.” When I was reading this chapter the other day, verse 8 stuck out to me. I wanted to share it with you and pose a question… Are you and your husband hiding from God because of sin? People avoid God all the time. Sin keeps them entangled in bondage, while shame and guilt keep them right there in the heat of it. Yet God says in Ephesians 5:11-14 “Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them; for it

The Preface

The launch of Unveiled Wife went without a hitch! I was so blessed to get such a positive response from so many people:) This website is so unique and dynamic that I wanted to explain a few things. The first is that the articles posted will include my story, devotionals, encouragements, random thoughts, book reviews and interviews with other wives! So be aware of ALL the different categories. Also, this website is interactive, as in I want YOUR input:) Comments, questions and concerns are all welcome!
